  1. 1 P-values were calculated using GraphPadPrism software. For 21-24 nt-long hits, t-test for normal distribution was used; for 25-27 nt-long hits, non-parametric Mann-Whitney test was used.
  2. 2P-values for the comparison of adenoviral and bacteriophagal hits.
  3. 3P-values for the comparison of herpesviral and bacteriophagal hits.
  4. 4P-values for the comparison of adenoviral and herpesviral hits.
